Abstract: 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) is evolving from one-time reconstruction into deliverable, inspectable, and maintainable visual assets. Existing workflows focus on global reconstruction, training-time density control, or open-ended generative editing, leaving trained assets without precise local maintenance. We propose FocusGS, which unifies local repair and deterministic editing as composite spatial deltas. Repair is the purely additive special case: its base-manipulation term is empty, and it adds only local Gaussian bases; deterministic editing uses erase-insert factorization (EIF) to combine old-carrier erasure with new-content insertion. FocusGS addresses spatial gradient starvation: local repair raises target-region PSNR by 7.91 dB over 93 evaluation views. Across all 83 deterministic editing trials, the target ROI improves, with a trial-averaged mean edited ROI PSNR of 21.97 dB and a mean gain of +11.05 dB; across five public editing cases, FocusGS-EIF reaches 33.17 dB Target-mask PSNR and 0.994 Target-delta Correlation, while both text-driven baselines fail to complete the prescribed updates. FocusGS provides a lightweight, verifiable 3DGS maintenance operator.
